+The JavaScript Use Provider allows loading objects created through the `use` function, by evaluating scripts passed to `data-sly-use`. The JavaScript files are evaluated server-side by the [Rhino](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/Rhino) scripting engine, through the `org.apache.sling.scripting.javascript` implementation bundle. This allows you to mix JavaScript API with the Java API exported by the platform. For more details about how you can access Java APIs from within JavaScript please check the [Rhino Java Scripting guide](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/Projects/Rhino/Scripting_Java#Accessing_Java_Packages_and_Classes).

 Since these scripts are evaluated server-side, by compiling JavaScript to Java, you need to pay attention when comparing primitive objects using the strict equal operator (`===`) since comparisons between JavaScript and Java objects with the same apparent value will return `false` (this also applies to the strict not-equal operator - `!==`).
 
 Assuming the following Sightly script:
